Thank Goodness I have enough fabric to last another lifetime...but that doesn't mean I won't buy what I love when it runs in front of my face. I agree with KatFish in stocking up on threads and battings....my King Tut is made in Japan and I fear the price will be worse than it already is...and my Quilters Dream battings will most certainly go up..so those are my primary concerns right now.
That said there will always be reasonable sales, thrift shop, tag sales and estate sales that will enable everyone to keep on with the joy of quilting. Where there is a will, there is a way!

I need to stock up on food for my family first but if I see a good price on fabric, I will purchase a little bit to have on hand. I have decided if prices rise so high I cannot really afford it, I will do simple designs such as half square triangles using my fabrics on hand and forget the designer fabrics and patterns.
Do you think the cotton prices will affect yarn prices too? I am trying to learn how to knit and have been buying skeins of yarn here and there as well to have on hand.
